Hey Risto. I don't mean to steal your time but it seems like forever since you last posted some quality TA in here. Would you mind sharing what you think 2015 will bring?

Evil and crafty people try to shake your bitcoins from you. Once they have completed the current round, the price is let to rise. The exponential trendline will hold. The price rise may be in the order of 100x before the year is over.

It is good to be open for developments, like privacy-centric altcoins. Currently Monero is still my pick, nothing better has come (same with Bitcoin btw. even if price goes to $100, if there is nothing better, why should you worry?). Monero marketcap is 1:1,000 of Bitcoin, so it is very cheap to take a hedge bet.

Crypto Kingdom will conquer the world.

Do you really think Monero is future ?
- there is less than 1% than bitcoin will fail in next 5 years
- there is less than 1% than monero can survive next 2 years

Edit:
Aircraft carrier(bitcoin) vs sailboat(monero ... few orders of magnitude less secure, order of magnitude bigger blockchain, tiny market cap.)

That capital "T" in "quality TA," what's it stand for again?

Seems to mean "traumatized" in this case Wink

We were supposed to be at 300.000$/BTC in about 3 weeks after all. Well at least it almost fits if we're talking price per kBTC, hehe.

Other than that I can only agree with both of you. Yes, it's gonna be shaky until around christmas (big triangle ending around that time) and yes, I was expecting something more tangible, numeric but still better than nada. Thx Risto.

Amen to that. I'm still shocked that Monero is so cheap right now given the technological breakthrough it represents.

This can't be a good sign for rpietila:

Bitcoin under assault in Estonia
http://basedreport.com/2014/12/bitcoin-under-assault-in-estonia/

Same guys you keep seeing creeping around your castle?

Stay safe, rpietila and castle crew.

I hope Estonian decision-makers see this. I am very troubled by the seemingly unfounded, unsensical and summary treatment of Otto. If the intention is to give the impression that the rule-of-law does not hold in Estonia, it has been given. I am awaiting high-level contact to ensure that there remains a possibility to continue building the Malla Bitcoin Center. If not, I am humbled that this development was regarded as such a big threat that the 2-decade old tradition of liberty in the country needed to be violated because of it.

Don't take it too seriously, though (everyone)

We play a moment and then we die. And bad guys go to hell. The choice is yours.

After 19 months of reading this forum, for me this is the best quote so far! The essence of life

Another of the king's chief men, approving of his wise words and exhortations, added thereafter: "The present life of man upon earth, O king, seems to me, in comparison with that time which is unknown to us, like to the swift flight of a sparrow through the house wherein you sit at supper in winter, with your ealdormen and thegns, while the fire blazes in the midst, and the hall is warmed, but the wintry storms of rain or snow are raging abroad. The sparrow, flying in at one door and immediately out at another, whilst he is within, is safe from the wintry tempest; but after a short space of fair weather, he immediately vanishes out of your sight, passing from winter into winter again. So this life of man appears for a little while, but of what is to follow or what went before we know nothing at all. If, therefore, this new doctrine tells us something more certain, it seems justly to deserve to be followed." The other elders and king's counsellors, by Divine prompting, spoke to the same effect.

Here's something you don't often read: From Nasdaq.com

"Why Bitcoin's Stability In Volatile Markets Makes It A 'Must Own' For Long-Term Investors"

They would argue that this relative stability is a sign of maturity in the market, while those who look for the negative in anything to do with crypto-currencies would no doubt claim it is a sign of a growing indifference. To some extent, both may be right, but either way it is a good thing for Bitcoin’s long term prospects.

Of course, a trading range of 30 percent or so still represents enough volatility to keep even the most ardent currency trader occupied, but after establishing those levels of support and resistance BTC/USD has begun to narrow its own range and has spent the last week or so hovering around the mid-point of $370.

These periods have happened before and usually precede periods of high volatility.

Anyone saying 'Bitcoin is maturing' because: "volatility down, liquidity up" doesn't quite understand what he's looking at. Yes: BTC/USD volatility is slowly decreasing when looking at long timeframes, but the quiet period we currently see (last ~1.5 weeks) is just that: a period which will end.
